8 Months Old

Today is my 8th Month Birthday! Mom and Dad say that this is their new favorite age- I am very interactive and funny. See the blur in this picture? That's the new me- constant movement! I have perfected my pterodactyl shriek (best done in quiet public places), and have expanded my vocabulary to include "da-da-da" and "ga-ga-ga". Once I even repeated "da-da" when Mom was prompting me with "say MA-MA!". My movements are more assertive now- I can throw myself forward to grab toys. Sometimes I land on my face and cry, sometimes I just lay there and admire the view from a different perspective. I'm grabbing things with superhuman speed and strength, to the shock and amazement of my parents. For example: the time I pulled that huge glass of iced tea onto Mom's lap at the restaurant, and yesterday when I almost broke Dad's pinky finger trying to get my paci from him. They can't stop me now, I'm plotting my takeover of the house! Just wait until I get out of this brace...

Oh my goodness, Kelsey - you sound like quite the handful these days! I sure do love all of your pictures, though; you definitely love that camera! :)
